RE: Will you be playing this on Steam?

<t> Absolutely, in fact if I have a choice of having a game on steam or from another source I'll generally go with steam over the other choice for convenience sake. Would love for the mods to come to steam as well, that way it's a one stop shop and I no longer have to check if they are updated ...

RE: Pirate Pillaging Preferences

Destroy all the pirate ships unless you know they have superior tech, then raid the planet and wait a bit till they regenerate and start capturing all the freighters. As I pirate in the firs ten years I usually have 100+ captured ships because I steal all the independent freighters ;0).

RE: Failure of Defend Mission

I uploaded the file as Goldor Defend mission failing.rar.

To recreate it simply attack any of the independent ships at any of the other colonies, or raid one of the other colonies that you are not currently tasked with defending.

[Bug] Text in the bottom left box not all being shown

<r> When you select a unit, say a ship/starbase and it has extra features, starfighters and such, sometimes text gets shoved out the bottom of the box you can view things in and as far as I know you can't scroll it to look at what is being cut off. Is there anyway to scroll it or resize it? As you ...

Failure of Defend Mission

If as a pirate you accept a mission to defend a independent colony and raid another colony or capture a ship produced at another colony you automatically fail your defend mission, even though they have nothing to do with the colony your defending currently.

RE: Question about smuggling

Far as I know, if you have extra of the resource and you have free smugglers/freighters then they will automatically take that mission and start smuggling resources.

RE: Suicidal private and public ships

For the colonization issue you can enforce colony limits to somewhere around 1-2 sectors and they will be forced to colonize close rather than far.

And a spaceport pops out of thin air, really able to trash your fleet as a pirate if that happens unexpectedly.

RE: Deep space refuel and repair services?

Can you not just add the stuff to make the resupply ship repair the ships that dock to it? Or is the ship behavior not work properly if you do that?

RE: Boarding pods claim abandoned ships

I honestly don't see the problem with it, after all if a ship has a hyperdrive in working order but has some damage, wouldn't you simply board it and then return it to your spaceport/base to repair it?

In any case I'm looking forward to the next update :).

Perhaps "simply" adding in a upgrade of the Warp bubble would work, perhaps 2000 more speed and slightly less energy intensive?
